Topic: Is this a weird DNS problem? (eBay.ca)

[stormdragon]

Hello,

I have encountered a really odd problem. All of a sudden, in the last 24 hours, I've been unable to resolve any addresses within - and including - www.ebay.ca! eBay.com works just fine, but my SME 6.6 can't even ping or traceroute!

When I traceroute ebay.ca's IP, it goes through fine, and so does a ping. However if I give a command like
#ping www.ebay.ca all I get is a "host not found" result.

This is where it gets weirder: once I've pinged the numeric IP, I can use my browser to get to the main ebay.ca page. If I try logging in or doing anything else, my browser just sits there at "Looking for signin.ebay.ca" or "cgi.ebay.ca" or wherever I'm trying to go.

So far it is the ONLY site that's doing this. I though it was my WinXP machine, but I can't even use Lynx to get to it!

Any thoughts?

Thanks!
